When vacuum packaging a large item, to prevent wrinkles
in the seal, gently stretch bag flat while placing it into
the vacuum channel.
When you are vacuum sealing items with sharp edges
(such as dry spaghetti, silverware, etc.), protect the bag
from punctures by wrapping the item in soft cushioning
material, such as a paper towel. You may use a canister
instead of a bag.
When using canisters, always leave 2.5cm of space at
the top of canister.
For best results, pre-freeze fruits and blanch vegetables
before vacuum sealing.
It is better to allow the sealing strip to cool for 1 minute
between uses.

Do not overfill the bag. Always leave at least 3 inches
of bag material between bag contents and top of bag.
Make sure the open end of the bag is dry. It will be
difficult to create a tight seal if moisture or liquid exists
in the open end.
Vacuum sealing is not a substitute for the heat process of
canning. Perishables still need to be frozen or refrigerated.
Make the open end of the bag clean and flat. Make sure
there is no foreign objects and there is no wrinkles,
or it will lead to a failed seal.

To prevent the appliance from overheating, allow it to cool for 30 seconds between uses.
Keep the lid open before vacuum sealing.
If the bag melts, the sealing strip may have been too hot during the sealing process.
Allow the appliance to cool for 30 seconds before using it again.
For best results, do not reuse the bags after storing raw meats, fish or greasy foods.
Do not reuse bags after simmering or microwaving.
Note:
TROUBLESHOOTING
Nothing happens when the power cord
is plugged into appliance
Make sure the power cord is not damaged.
Make sure both ends of the power cord are correctly plugged into
the electrical outlet and appliance.
Appliance is plugged in, but it is failed to vacuum package
Ensure the lid is closed and electromagnet latch is locked.
Ensure the open end of the bag is correctly placed into
the vacuum channel.
Allow the appliance to cool for 30 seconds between uses.
Air was removed from the bag, but now air has reentered
Check if there is a hole on the bag. It may be punctured by sharp foods.
Use a new bag if this happens.
Check the seal. A wrinkle along the seal may cause air to reenter the
bag. If there is a wrinkle along the seal, simply cut the sealed edge
and reseal.
If there is moisture or liquid from foods present within the seal,
cut open the bag and wipe away foods on the open end of the bag.
Choose MOIST FOOD setting and reseal.
If the food has been stored for a long time and the bag is full of gases,
the food may spoil. We recommend discarding the food.

ACCESSORIES
Used together with bags, canisters, bottle stoppers and other accessories,
the appliance will achieve the best vacuum.
Vacuum storage bags and rolls
(sold separately)
Textured design helps remove air from inside a bag. Multi-layer
structure builds an effective barrier preventing oxygen, moisture
and freezer burn. Various sizes are available.
Note: Do not reuse the bags after storing raw meats, fish or
greasy foods. Do not reuse the bags after simmering
or microwaving.
Bottle stoppers(sold separately)
Vacuum package red wine, non-carbonated beverages or oil with
our bottle stopper. Extend the life of liquid and preserve the flavor.
Note: Never use our bottle stopper on plastic bottles. Do not
vacuum package carbonated or sparkling beverages.
Because gas removal will cause the bottles to go flat
during the vacuum sealing process.
Vacuum storage canisters
(sold separately)
Our vacuum storage canister is an ideal choice for fragile items, such as muffin, other baked foods, liquids and dry goods.
The canisters come in various shapes and sizes. You can use it on the countertop, in the refrigerator or in the pantry.
The marinator is a perfect way to marinate foods. It takes only a few minutes instead of hours.
All of our canisters can be used for marinating foods. We recommend the square or triangle canisters because less marinade is needed.
Do not use the canisters in the freezer. The lightweight stackable canisters are convenient for storing precooked meats, leftovers and snacks.
Note: Allow the hot foods to cool off before vacuum packaging. Otherwise, foods may bubble up out of the canister.
